I've done it!

This is a bragging post to tell you all I've found something that I can buy and then sell for more on Ebay!

Yay!

I'm not telling you what it is though.

The strange thing is that other people are selling similar things for less, and theres aren't selling but mine are. But I'm not complaining.

    People do some very strange things on ebay. I recently listed two new items as seperate auctions both identical items. What i found was though, that people were fighting over one of them and the bids were getting higher and higher and yet the other item just sat there and had no bids. I can never understand people when that happens, Its happened to me a few times. Have they not seen the 'view sellers other items' link!! NOt that im complaining though.

    Well done juno...keep it to yourself what the item is else e-bay will be flooded and you won't make so much profit! :D A while ago hubby was buying AV senders from Currys and selling them for £15 profit a piece.And recently I sold an item with a tag on it of £8.50 it sold for £18!! I was gob smacked!Whenever I go into town I always look for things in the sales that I can make a profit on.Thing with e-bay is that buyers don't do their research enough.They think they are getting a bargain when in reality they aren't.If they done their research they would know they could get the same item cheaper in town but without paying for postage.(not that I'm complaining)lol

    Maybe they are starting their auction for more than you are or they are charging more postage? Most of our auctions start at 99p and we only charge a few pence more p+p than it takes to deliver it.
